Commercial Sanitation Services

The City of Temple Terrace provides commercial refuse collection to all business locations in Temple Terrace. There are three commercial options to choose from depending on the size and type of business being serviced: commercial cans, compactors (emptying only), and dumpsters.

Option 1

Small business locations may choose the commercial cans option for $26.21 per month. The business would provide their own garbage cans (limit of four cans), which must be no larger than 32 gallons.
